NOTES.
Gobelin blue is one of the popular
colors.
The fall color almost as general as
heliotrope was last spring, is copper.
Travelling closks are being made in a
new style of cloth, either striped OF
curled.
Cocks plumes, much curled, are seen
in quantities on importations OF hats and
bonnets.
Ashes of roses is revived among the
new gray tints, and takes the name OF
Mslmaison gray.
New hats in felt and bever, or halter e
plush come in all the new dark and light
colors.
There are many shades of Gobelin blue,
ranging from Sevres to gray blues OF
various gradstions.
The hideous fashion of rasse terre
skirts scraping the pavements in the back
threatens to return.
Most of the tweed costumes are now
made suitable for utility walking gowns,
without additional wraps.
India cashmere made up with MORE
Franchise forms one Of the very fashion
able combinations in stylish autumn
toilets.
Plush nantes for the autumn are made
in visite- shape with sling sleeves 81 d
fancy vests covered with beading or GIN Z
the shade of the plush.
Dress skirts are narrower in front erd
lighter at the sides, although this must ia
no way detract from the fullness of tie
drapery at the back.
The more plain and simple the skirt
drspery becomes the more elaborate Is
the trimming of the bodice. On this &C
count jackets are more worn, as they
allow more room for the display of waist
coats, jabots, chemisettes, etc.
An outdoor dress for little girls con-
sists of cream colored skirt trimmed
with white lace, with French gray silk
polonalse and hat to match. The little
waistCoat is made of crosswsy stripes
and the polonaise is buttoned over it
sideways.
The fashion of wearing lace high up to
the throat is already much 10 vogue, and
will be still more so during the winter. A
pretty style Of simple evening bodice is to
have a chemisette of black or cream lace,
drawn into high lace band around the
tnroat, to close in front around a semi
low silk, satin, velvet, or material bodice,
with three-quarter length sleeves.
A pretty way of covering 8 partially
bare arm, when the ball sleeve is imagin-
sry, is 10 fasten smart little bow of rib.
bon or velvet to the shoulder band, carry
two ends down to just above the elbow,
let them meet, add another bow, and
carry an end round the arm to keep all il
place. If long glove is worn, the Sec
ond bow is attached to it and helps to
keep it up, and the band forms bracelet
to it.
The most noteworthy change in the
general makeup CT costumes is the use
of more dIaperies st the side, a tendency
to fuller skirts and toward extremely
high draperies at the back. Waists re-
mgin short on the hips, but are some
times Heightened into square tabs in front
and long postillion at the back. Full
vests of various kinds are very popular
and sleeves are rather fuller than they
have been. A square pyramid Of trim
ming is set in the top of the sleeve in
many of the new French costumes.
For walking costumes cloths are de-
cidedly the first choice. Smooth cloths
are to be used for dressy gowns, two col
ors in rather marked contrast appearing
in one costume. Plain and plaid cloths
are combined in the way so popular for
summer fabrics. Rough cloths sre also
shown. They are zigzsg strips, crossbars
and checks of vague, indistinct colors,
prettily blended. Very dark diagonals of
rough surface hsve also various colors
blended. Serges have both a plain and
rough tWilled surface.
